This week on Curmudgeon's Corner, Sam and Ivan talk healthcare (recorded before McCain killed it, oops), the Spicer to Scaramucci transition (recorded before Scaramucci's New Yorker rant, oops again), the Trump vs Sessions battle, and Kushner's testimony. But they also talk about the Charlie Gard case, data tethering, Ivan's treating himself after getting a new job, some TV stuff, Sam's wife's run for office, and even more! Another big full show as usual!

This week on Curmudgeon's Corner, Sam and Ivan focus on the "nothingburger" of the Donald Trump Jr meeting everybody has been talking about. Nothing to see there, right? But before that, they do manage to get in some conversation on Trump's performance at the G20, and on completely non-Trump matters, they talk about unlimited data plans, kids and YouTube, and revisit the minimum wage. Lots of meat in that nothingburger!

This week on the Curmudgeon's Corner podcast Sam and Ivan talk about television, thermostats, manipulating public opinion and a few other things besides Election 2016, but of course most of the show ends up being about the election. They cover the last gasp Sanders path to the nomination, Trump zig-zagging on the issues, the Republican civil war, and possible Trump VPs. Oh, and Sam's son Alex keeps interrupting to promote his YouTube channel.
